I’m sorry you felt this way, but I don’t judge or change my house rules based on who is staying. Unfortunately I’ve had to be explicit about specific rules due to guests who have not had the common sense to respect my home in the past. All the furniture and beds are less than 2 years old and typically folks ask me where I purchased my mattresses because they are so comfortable. I am also explicit about cameras so folks are not surprised when they arrive! Again unfortunately I’ve had folks abuse my home and throw parties in the past. No one likes rules, but I’d rather be up front based on my past experience so folks are not surprised. If you look through my actual house rules you’ll see that they are simply common sense courtesies. This is my home, not a hotel, and I rent it in the spirit of community and VRBO

Hi Caitlin! Thanks for staying! Rules are specified in the listing before you book - there are no new rules sent after booking - that would be terrible! My rules are mainly to prevent parties, but I wish you had asked and I would have been able to provide you with guidance on everything! Having your Grandma over would have been completely fine! Also, the additional fee for additional overnight guests is currently $20 pp/per night, not $200. :)
